ROLF: Steve Costigan and the Thief of Youth

ADD TO WISHLIST >

Inspired by the Works of Robert E. Howard!

Steve Costigan and the Thief of Youth is a short adventure that can either be played using ROLF!: The Rollplaying Game of Big Dumb Fighters or The Violent Worlds of Robert E. Howard (included in the Fists of Foolishness fiction anthology), or as a solo adventure using the rules in the set.

Written by veteran game designer Steve Miller, and based on the comedic boxing character created by Robert E. Howard, this adventure captures the flavor of the original Costigan stories, and throws in a little of the darkness that Howard is best remembered for. 

("Steve Costigan and the Thief of Youth" is also included in Shanghaied Mitts. Each download will come with a special link that provides a $0.50 discount toward the purchase of that NUELOW Games fiction anthology.)

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
